GUILTY or MARRYING.
A Singular Case Under the New Law OF
Michigan.

a singular GAsc tnucr the Now Inv oi
Michigan.
EAST SAGINAW, Mich, Dec. PA sensa-
ton has been stirred up here over the trial
and conviction OF Lyman Collins, OF this
city, on the charge of enticing l4-year- old
girl named Josephiee Bushnell from q
farm in Bridgeport for the purpose Of mar
rying her. Collins IS 40 years old and well
to do. The girl likes him. aud, while the
differences in their ages perhaps renders ii
improper that they should marry, there has
been no charge OF evil motives against the
man. The couple were duly married at
the house of the girls sister, but against
the wishes OF her parents. who availed
themselves of the new law making it q
criminal offense for any man 10 marry q
girl of IA or under, 10 prosecute Colling
The Jury were instructed by the court that
Collins had violated the letter of the law
and he Was convicted in short order. COL
lins will fight the matter 10 the last court.
MANY people consider the new Law was not
intended for cases where honorable mar
riages took place.
